"Who are you?" Techno asks lowering his sword and placing it on the ground. He looks at her from across the pond completely captivated by her.

"Kore and you?" She asks, both walking around the pond until they are right in front of one another.

"Techno." He answers simply.

The two circled one another, each taking in the other. She looked up at the tall man with curiosity.

His face was mostly covered with a mask made from the skull of one of the many pig like beasts that roamed around his kingdom. His eyes were a bright ruby red and his pink hair was kept in a long braid at the back of his neck. She looked down at his blood covered shirt. "Are you alright? You're hurt." She said and moved closer to him. She gently touched his shoulder that has a long gash from a axe.

"I'm fine." He responded simply and smiled slightly. Why she wasn't moving away from him and screaming in fear was a mystery to him. Here he was, a stranger covered in blood with a sword, and she was asking him if he was alright.

He took another look at the girl. Her eyes shined in the sunshine and her soft skin glowed. He reaches up and moves a strand of hair that fell in front of her face. "I'm sorry if I scared you." He said charmingly and sat down on the edge of the pond. He motioned for her to sit next to him.

"Its alright. I'm sorry if I was intruding back at your house. No one has ever stayed there before. I saw smoke coming from the chimney." She explained and sat down next to him.

The young god nodded and leaned back basking in the warm sunlight. "Don't worry about it. I thought you might have been someone else." He explained and closed his eyes.

"Let me at least clean your injuries, the water from the pond has healing properties." She said and stood up going over to her mothers small medicine collection and grabbed everything she needed. She sat back down and reached to unclip his cape. She took it off and neatly put it down next to her.

"May I?" She mumbled softly, once he nods she reaches over and starts to clean the blood from the cut on his shoulder. She carefully wraps his arm up. "In a few days it should heal." She said and starts to wrap another one. He watched her the whole time, taking in every small movement she made.

She looked up, her eyes meeting his ruby red ones. She reached up and touched the side of his face where a small cut had been made. "Can I take off your mask?" She asked and once he nodded she reached around to untie the ribbon that held it in place.

"Persephone, I'm back." Her mother announced and walked into the greenhouse, she headed straight for the kitchen to put her bags down. "Persephone where are you?" She called out and started to empty the bags.

"Coming mother." The goddess calls out and looks up at techno panicked. "You have to leave now. If my mother finds you she'll be furious." She whispered and pulled him up. "Go out the back, hurry." She says and pulls him to the back door.

The god quickly grabs his things and follows her. "Wait I want to see you again." He said and fixed his mask.

"You will. I'll sneak out tonight while mother sleeps. Now go." She said and ushered him out the door.

"Until we meet again." He uttered and walked away into the dense snowy forest.

The four men gathered around the large meeting table. "We have no choice. This is no longer about one person, this is about justice." One of them declared, while slamming his fist down for effect.

"Quackity, we have to think this through, we aren't talking about just killing some random person. We are talking about hunting down a god." The young president reminded the eager man. "This isn't going to be easy. He has weapons we could only dream about. Skills that are unmatched, none of us will stand a chance."

"Don't forget the withers. So many withers." The half fox boy stated, shaking his head at the memory of what happened last time they tried to go against the god.

"I know. We have to get some leverage on him. That horse isn't going to be enough. We need something more powerful." Quackity passed back and forth and looked to the half enderman boy. "Go and scout out the area. There must be something we are missing." He said. The younger nodded and teleported away leaving a trail of purple particles in his wake.

"So we are doing this then. We are going after Technoblade." Tubbo said worry filled his voice.

"A god isn't immune to attachments. We just need to find his." Quackity stated with a new found confidence and a hunger for revenge.
